Blog Search Far From Solved
Google’s blog search tool launched to much fanfare. Steve Rubel did a little experiment to see which blog search engine would return the most granular search. Today, he pronounces Technorati the winner based on this sample of one.
I couldn’t agree more with his central point — blog search has a long way to go. A mind boggling task with many moving parts — how to do a live scan of millions of frequently updated sites? We do blog monitoring for Weblogs Work clients, and today our method involves a hand cobbled portfolio of search tools and terms. We’re in the early stages of working on our own mashup. Mostly for ourselves, but maybe for public use at some point.
